Chapter 135 In a world with resurrection spells, if you don’t get rid of K’s head, it’s like leaving a note without erasing it, it’s incomplete.

The strange two-legged cat that suddenly appeared and resurrected the Human Emperor's brother was naturally no stranger to Huang Lang.

That is the long-lasting NPC from the game "Monster Hunter" series - El Cat. These little things play a lot of roles in the game and appear more often, but to say that players are most familiar with El Cat, it has to be [

Cat Car】.

Each game has a different resurrection mechanism. If there is a Soul Healer in World of Warcraft, then the resurrection mechanism of a monster hunter with the theme of hunting monsters is the [Cat Car].

Cat cart, to put it bluntly, means that the player fails to hunt but is killed by the prey. At this time, one or two super cute Ellu cats will appear, pulling a cart, no matter the cold, summer or autumn, no matter what

Danger, rescue the player - of course, the mission will be considered a failure.

Sometimes when monster hunters say "the cat is dead", they just mean it is dead.

Huang Lang had played monster hunting before. At a certain stage, he was considered a veteran tough guy who wielded a sledgehammer to make a killing, so he naturally recognized El Cat.

But knowing El Cat doesn't mean he knows why the resurrection mechanism in Monster Hunter appears on the Human Emperor's brother.

While Huang Lang was shocked, Nova, who had been staring at the scene, spoke again:

"The target has changed."

After hearing Nova's report, Huang Lang quickly gathered his thoughts and pointed at the morgue in the distance with the magical telescope in Metal Gear Solid. Through the telescope with the magnification raised, Huang Lang clearly saw the scene in the morgue.

He saw Gerald Stefan sitting up and opening his eyes, and saw Gerald raising his hand, clenching his fingers and then unclenching them, as if he was wondering.

However, Huang Lang soon saw a scene that made his heart suddenly sink - Gerald Stefan's expression.

He didn't know anything about Gerald. He had heard about it a few times, and he also learned about it through casual chats with the eldest lady and Olwenna. From the fragments he knew, Gerald-Stefan seemed to

He should be a kind-hearted person who understands the overall situation, is kind and indifferent, but...

But Gerald's expression at the moment seems to have nothing to do with these qualities. His eyes flash with a rude, unbridled, primitive and violent light, which makes people feel extremely violent, as if a blast furnace is pouring into his head.

Molten steel, and sparks were bursting from his eyes.

Huang Lang suddenly felt something was wrong, and at this moment, the directional microphone also captured Gerrard talking to himself:

"Is it once? If it happens twice more, it will be a failure."

After saying this, Gerald's expression management came back online, and the violent sparks that briefly appeared in his eyes disappeared. Immediately, Gerald fell into a state of thinking.

Gerald's expression stabilized, but Huang Lang's expression began to get a little out of control - for no other reason than what Gerald said.

[Once, twice will fail], these words may not make much sense to ordinary people's ears, or they may sound like a riddle, but monster hunting players who have just seen the cat car appear will feel uncomfortable when they hear this sentence.

Same:

In Monster Hunting, if the player is taken away by a cat cart once, the hunting reward will be reduced by one-third or one-half, but after two or three deaths, the mission will be judged as a failure. This is the so-called [Three

cat】.

[Gerald Stefan, are you performing some kind of monster hunter mission?! There is a cat car, and there are three more chances?! Or is this just some kind of coincidence in rhetoric?! Or the other party knows that I am there?

Snooping, so you said it deliberately to confuse me?】

For a time, many thoughts and doubts flashed through Huang Lang's mind.

However, the changes in the morgue soon attracted Huang Lang's attention:

I saw the door of the morgue opened, and when Gerald heard the door opening, he instantly changed his expression. He looked weak and confused, as if he had just woken up from some kind of nightmare-like sleep.

Let's do the same thing - if the dead can really be resurrected, it will probably look like that.

Seeing Gerald weakly supporting his body and trying to get up, the mage who pushed in the door to bring in a new corpse froze in place. The out-of-control wind spell could no longer lift the corpse, and there was a crashing sound from the corpse.

After falling to the ground, the mage let out a scream and stumbled back.

It didn't take long for the acting director to rush over. When he saw Gerard resurrected, he burst into tears. The joy of surviving the disaster made him rush over to hold Gerard Stefan up and give him a hand.

With tears running down my nose, I thanked the goddess.

Huang Lang was in the distance, his face as deep as water, watching the scenes quietly. Finally, he saw Gerald being put on clothes, taken away from the morgue, and closely escorted all the way into the administrative office of Port Moreby.

After entering the center - [City Lord's Mansion], he put down the telescope and sat down against the wall.

"Boss," came the voice of Bobcat who had regained his composure over the communicator, "Do you have any good ideas on what to do next?"

Huang Lang was silent for a long time. His fingers repeatedly rubbed the speed of the assault rifle. He moved the speed up and down repeatedly, making soft clicking sounds. Finally, when the speed was pointed at S, Huang Lang was silent for a long time.

After stopping, he said in a deep voice:

"This assassination is not over yet."

"Should I say that heroes have the same view?" Bobcat's voice revealed a little admiration, "The conclusion that the intelligence team just analyzed is also the same."

[Any strike against important targets requires confirmation of the results. In the early days, scouts and espionage personnel were used, and later developed into the use of satellites and drones. Although the form has changed, the core spirit has never changed—

—It is necessary to make sure that the target has been destroyed within an acceptable range. If the target is a person, it is natural to make sure that there is absolutely no possibility of this person surviving]--Such a thought flashed through Huang Lang's mind.

In his hometown world, Huang Lang is very clear about the death confirmation standards for individual targets. After all, he himself was once the person in the team responsible for confirming the target's death.

However, do the death confirmation standards in my hometown really apply to other worlds?

Huang Lang once discussed this seemingly joking issue with his colleagues/comrades. He remembered that they even took out an assassination in the game and conducted a joke-like case analysis:

It was an assassination in a game called [StarCraft]. In this future world, agent Sarah Kerrigan was ordered to assassinate the Mengsk family that ruled the planet Korhal. In this assassination, there was a

The details are that the agent responsible for the assassination cut off the target's head and took him away.

The general view is that this is a way for Agent Kerrigan's boss, the federal government in the game, to scare Korhal and spread fear. However, for Huang Lang who undertakes medical tasks in the "engineering team", sometimes

This is a great professional detail for the person responsible for confirming the target's death.

Why do you say that?

Because in the world setting of StarCraft, only in this way can the death of the target be ensured, and it can be considered a complete targeted killing mission.

Huang Lang likes StarCraft very much, and he likes it like he is familiar with the novels. In Chapter 32 of the official StarCraft novel "Demon in Heaven", there is this description:

At that time, the sniper in the demon team where the protagonist Jim Renault was, first hit Vanderspup with a sniper rifle bullet. The bullet entered from the shoulder and penetrated Vanderspup's body. Then the kinetic energy of the bullet was still enough

Kill the man behind Vanderspup.

Soon afterwards, Jim Raynor stabbed Vanderspup's chest with the spike of an electromagnetic gun.

At this time, after his shoulder was pierced by a sniper bullet and his chest was pierced by an electromagnetic spike capable of penetrating power armor, Vanderspup fell down.

The protagonists all thought that Vanderspu was dead. The medic in the team was dead at the time, and no one provided professional confirmation, so they just assumed that Vanderspool was dead.

But is Vanderspool dead?

No, this Vanderspup came back to life in the subsequent plot "Devil's Contract" and caused huge trouble for the protagonist.

So, in a high-tech world where you can survive having your shoulders smashed and electromagnetic spikes piercing your chest, how can you ensure that the target has been effectively eliminated?

Yes, just like Agent Kerrigan did, chop off the target's head, otherwise they may have a way to come back to life.

So, in a fantasy world where resurrection spells exist, how do you confirm that your target has been targeted and eliminated?

Moreover, after going to great lengths to create a big explosion to cover up this targeted killing, and consuming so many resources, how can we ensure that the target is really dead?

The time limit of the resurrection spell seems to be eight hours, so it may be a way to move the mages who release the resurrection spell away from the mountain as much as possible to keep them away from the target, but this method is not completely safe. After all, what kind of super is really used?

With magic items and other means, it's not impossible to get back early.

Moreover, there is another very important point, what if the assassin knew that Gerald had an automatic resurrection method like a cat car?

Huang Lang made a rough calculation and found that it had been almost exactly eight hours since the incident happened, which happened to be the time limit of the resurrection spell.

What if the [Cat Car] held by Gerald will only activate automatically when Gerald [really dies], that is, when the local resurrection spell cannot work?

If this is the case, then this assassination is not over yet.

If the assassin knew about the existence of the cat car, then there should be two more assassinations, perhaps to completely kill Gerald;

If the assassin did not know the existence of the Cat Car, then at least he should have ensured that the resurrection spell would not work at that time, and took some measures such as cutting off the head, or simply destroying the body directly - if this was the case, the assassin should have been killed by someone.

blocked.

No matter what, this assassination operation is not over yet!!!

Thinking of this, Huang Lang led Nova and Mata Harry on the roof of the building shrouded in starry night, rushing towards the city lord's palace.

"Do we need to prepare to intervene, do we need to prepare support forces, boss?" Bobcat asked through remote communication.

"Stay observant first, but keep emergency personnel ready and ready to intervene at any time."

After that, Huang Lang shot out silver spider silk from his wrist and stuck it to a tall tower. He stopped Nova's waist with his hand and swung forward.

At this moment, in the city lord's mansion...

The acting director who knew the secret of Gerald's identity finally told the city lord of Gerald's identity after asking for instructions remotely. The city lord suddenly understood why the acting director of the treatment center was so nervous to pull this old nobleman over for protection.

Woke up.

Immediately, he directly pulled Gerald to the core of the City Lord's Mansion. Then, on the grounds that the city was under attack and the City Lord's Mansion might be attacked next, he increased the security of the City Lord's Mansion and surrounded it like an iron barrel.

stand up.
